Description

My nerd cave. Happy to talk merits and limitations of system. Always thinking about better sound, without lamenting the way things are now. New room in 2023 with 2 sheets of 5/8" sheetorck with Green Glue in between, suspended off of rubber connectors to aluminum hat channel, plus 2 layers of rock wool. All outlets sealed with putty. 10/2 line to power amp, dedicated circuit for electronics.

Ctsooner - are you talking to me? (Paulburnett has 2CEs in the posted system)
If RV offers a carbon component upgrade path for the Vandersteen 3 chassis, then I will consider. We can continue the discussion on my system thread, if you wish.

Vandersteen 3A Sigs here, since early 2000s.

Room treatments, if necessary, may provide the best bang for the buck.
I use GIK422s and Eight Nerve triangles - you can get the same results with DIY recipes, too.

What are your room dimensions? Make sure you have tried all of the loudspeaker placement combinations before getting any new hardware.

What do you have more for software? Vinyl/tape or digital? That will help folks guide you in hardware suggestions, too.
